More about VA Funding Fees
The Big benifit to a VA loan is that the Veteran's Administration will be guaranteeing the loan for the lender against any loo that migh occurr do to the borrower defaulting. Lender are therfore more willing to approve a loan with no down payment or equity in the home as long as the borower meets the guidelines.
Some factors that affect the VA funding fee are whether the borrower is on active duty, a verteran of the regular military, Reserves or National Guard, also thhe length of service, and the time at which they served. Another factor is whether the Verteran has used loans before. Lastly some of our Veterans are even exempt from the funding fee, if they have a service-connected disability.
